I get really fucking annoyed when I see Canadian healthcare apologia by virtue of the fact we aren't as horrible as the US.

Approximately 3 to 5 Canadians died *today* because they couldn't afford their medications.

Would be nice if Nintendo would take accessibility seriously. Their games are notoriously inaccessible to disabled people. They never caption their YouTube videos, you have to rely on auto-captions, which aren't always great.

I knew quite a few d/Deaf and DeafBlind boomers. Many became that way because their mothers had measles during pregnancy or they contracted it at a young age.

Abled people live in a social bubble. I live in a concentrated community, which is how I came to know these people.

Meta uses its scale to avert accountability. They chose to create a problem of this size and expect us to live with it. This is not acceptable. Things have to change.

What’s with religious proselytizers thinking they are exempt from the no junk mail signs posted on mailboxes?

Just handed a booklet back to the guy after he put it into my mailbox. I was quick enough.

Of course, he continued doing the same thing at each house on my street.

Yep.

Remember when his ex-wife accused him of threatening to kill her? That was back in 2019. Not only that, he put a gun in his mouth and fired into the ceiling while his daughter was in the room.

I guess some people don’t really change after all.

And I’ve been told by some people that Meta is already overregulated…
“Meta projected 10% of its 2024 revenue would come from ads for scams and banned goods, documents seen by Reuters show. And the social media giant internally estimates that its platforms show users 15 billion scam ads a day.”

It hasn’t appeared on my FB but apparently they’ve added a thumbs-down button. What I can tell you is this feature will do a major disservice to disabled people. They will get downvoted and their posts will get suppressed more than they are right now.

A good friend on Facebook posted about how difficult she finds it to see her adult son struggling to find a place to live. The cost of living here in Niagara is astonishingly high. Too many greedy corporations and landlords are bilking all they can out of you.

You failed to mention that Indigenous people are shouldering 20% of your austerity budget cuts.

This is #apartheid in Canada.

Following in your father's footsteps, as predicted.
Carney government cuts unfairly hit First Nations
Budget cuts to Indigenous services violate equality rights and risk legal, moral, and financial consequences.
